After the recent Big Thread on the Ann Arbor Chronicle about snow removal status, may I suggest that the Ann Arbor online community needs a Google Maps mashup of the city where it is possible to add layers relating to various issues. E.g.
Layer 1: unshoveled sidewalks by location and date of snowfall
Layer 2: problems with garbage pickup
Layer 3: problems with Orangeburg tile
etc.
I wish I could do this, but I don’t have the skills or the time. I know it’s doable, though, and it would be a great asset to the city.
